[A] [N] This is a song about how, when sometimes, sometimes you found it necessary to rob the
safe at the restaurant where you work, and they, and it's funny, your friends who have
good jobs, what good can come of that?
Here I quote your friends, they only have about $2,000 in there.
If you were honest with your friends, you would say, look, $2,000 will buy me a quarter
pound of peanut butter crank, and I'll be going for a good 10 days off that, unless
I meet up with some friends.
Then you may stop to think to yourself that you're likely to meet up with some friends,
new friends.
People you didn't really know until word began to spread in the neighborhood.
John robbed a safe, and he took all 2K, and he bought a quarter pound.
He's in room 10, 253 North Broadway, you can't miss it.
Faces Broadway at an angle across from the Coliseum, and so there you are with your new
friends listening to King Diamond, as you do.
[A]
High for three days and beginning to talk nonsense, and you may think to yourself, I
wish I had a song to sing.
You may only hold this thought for a second or so, but I heard you when you thought that,
and that's why I wrote you this song.
[D]
[A]
[E] Home Boulevard, [Bm] between [A] Gary [D] and White, [A] I hooked up with some friends [E] at Travel Heart.
[D] We set ourselves [E] on fire, [A] our band room acts in [E] the dresser, [Bm]
[A] flies in [D] the screen.
[A] It's gonna be too late by [E] the time we learn [D] what [A] these [E] symbols mean.
And [A] I'm [D]
haunted [A] by all you tweakers with [D] your hands out, [A] and the hedge stumps climbed
up the [D] hill, [A] and the hedge stumps climbed up [D] the hill.
[Em]
[A] Tressle body, [E] Aguasota,
[Bm] come through the [D] carpet from Clues, [A]
reflective tape [E] on our sweatpants.
[D] Great big holes [E] in our shoes.
[A] Every couple [E] minutes, [Bm] someone says you [Em] can't [A] stand it [D] anymore.
[A] Half lines on [E] our faces,
[D] scale maps [E] of the ocean [Em] floor, and [A] I'm
[D] [A]
pointing out from inside
[D] the television, and [A] the air, [D] yawning and blinking, [A] and the hedge stumps climbing up [D] the hill.
[Em]
[C#m] If [D] anybody comes [A] to see,
[C#m] they [D] just missed me [A] by a minute.
[C#m] If [D] anybody comes into [A] our room, we'll be asleep.
[E] Baggins in a ring, [D] every [E] rocky day and [Em] night, [A] and I fell
[D] asleep.
Well, [A] they manufactured what [D] I needed, [A] using shiny [D] new machines, [A]
and the hedge stumps climbed
[D] up the hill, climbed up, climbed up.
